Memorial acadêmico-profissional: relatos de uma trajetória plural

Abstract

The purpose of this document is to present a summary of my academic and professional trajectory, highlighting nearly sixteen years of exclusive dedication to teaching in Basic, Technical, and Technological Education at the Basic Education School of the Federal University of Uberlândia. In the teaching axis of my career, I recall some of my experiences in the elementary school classroom teaching the course Foreign Language – English and participating in both informal and formal teaching projects, like, for instance, the Institutional Program of Scholarships for Teaching Initiation, commonly known by its acronym in portuguese, Pibid. Regarding the extension axis, I revisit my participation in projects that promote the interaction between school and community from various perspectives, some of them directed more specifically at the school community of Eseba/UFU, others with a more social orientation, and still others that point to the promotion of critical literacy. As for administrative experience, I present my participation in internal boards and committees and as a coordinator of the Foreign Language area of Eseba/UFU. Regarding research, I discuss the investigations conducted by me, papers presented to the academic community and publications, organizing the experiences within the periods of the Master's and Doctorate and outside of them. When synthesizing my academic and professional experiences on teaching, extension, administration and research, I have sought to reflect on what drives me within my teaching career and on the paths I still plan to follow.
